@GroupNebula563 np: scary monsters and nice sprites

@crackhappy @ryanc too late i'm dead

@ryanc *starts bleeding from eyes and ears*

@joeress you call it duty, i call it basic sanity.

@yacc143 @gleick indeed. the way germans learned about bezos was that it was his fault all small book stores had to close.

@bitinn just picking up vibes in the past month, and people make unsubstantiated insinuations in posts that suggest there is a problem with it.

@redmp then that's the end of it i would say. the web is already dead. it just doesn't know it yet.

@dotstdy calling them common would be pushing it, too

@redmp what do you mean specifically?

as an engineer, not happy about the growing assumption that opening a URL is in itself dangerous. this is one of the hidden pillars of web browsing: that you can open any URL and no harm will come to your computer. psychological harm, sure, why not, but your computer should be ok.

if opening a URL were no longer safe on principle, it would destroy the internet, or the web at least. you could as well start downloading and running executables again.

@mweagle computers can be a force of good. is this the time to still be self-deprecating? the age of enlightenment is at stake.

@adam_chal "you're right to push back on that"

@catsalad @thomholwerda might be that when you have e.g. ublock origin enabled, the shitty nature of the website you're linking to is hidden from you

@redsad i'm german so all of this is unrecognized (only mum believed) and undiagnosed (but my scores knew), and my spiritual journey started with 20 rather than 40, but yeah... I Sure Am On A Path.

@Jakob_Krakel @LordCaramac @haekelschwein ah ein unternehmer also

@LordCaramac @haekelschwein ich brauche nicht mal geld, ich brauche nur

<lange liste von sachwerten>

@pitch ich auch. aber ist halt alles ein ding 'ne. gibt viele sachen. jede sollte möglich sein. friedliche koexistenz ist mir lieber, als dass eine methode dominiert. single point of failure und so.

@pitch also mit dem ton kriegst du keine groupies

@pitch @haekelschwein both things can be true. möge der bessere gewinnen.

(langfristig wäre mir ein planetares resourcenmanagement am liebsten)

@haekelschwein wahr.

diese arbeitgeber sind wohl auch durch die bank unglaubliche zyniker. wir brauchen bessere arbeitgeber.
